Calling all crafters.

Apologies, this is not the right section but I can't see one for hobbies.

I have made a greetings card that will not stand up. I've added extra card onto it, to reinforce it (the card is quite thin) but it still keeps collapsing. It is A6 landscape size.

Anyone any idea how I can get it to stand up please?

cant help you on the question, but for future reference the hobbies section is under society and culture http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Society-and-Cul ture/Hobbies-and-Interests/

Rub some viagra on it .

You could try spraying the back of a similar piece of card with hair lacquer to see if that makes it any stronger and also to see if it penetrates through to the front.

Thanks for that good idea, Wak.

I have stuck a little strip of card, folded into three sections, into the inside of the card, along each side, near the top. It seems to have done the trick.

Thanks again for replies.
